Description : QuadKonsole embeds Konsole kparts in a grid layout.
Compared to starting several konsole instances next to each other
quadkonsole has the following advantages (according to the package
author):
* Saves memory.
* Faster startup.
* You don't need to align your konsole windows by hand.
* You have a lot more screen real estate.
* Navigation is easier, using arrow keys.
* All konsoles can be minimized/maximized at once.
* QuadKonsole occupies only one slot in the taskbar.
Some drawbacks (noted by the packager) are:
* Session management is not possible.
* Execution of commands on startup is not possible.
